Birthday Present For AP?
| Tue, 06-15-2010 - 11:57pm |
AP's birthday is next month, and I'd really like to get him something special (though don't have a lot of money, so can't be too expensive).

Hi AE
I tried to think long and hard for my AP for Xmas and also his Birthday.... not saying they great ideas mind you....
Xmas did some daft things like a CD reflecting the music that reminded me of our first 9 months, maybe you could do some upbeat stuff

Yeah I have the same concern about a St. Christopher pendant - he wouldn't be able to wear it, unless it was something he might have bought for himself. (And if I were his W and saw something like that I think I'd know whether he was someone who might actually get that for himself). And a pendant isn't something you would want him to hide at another house.
My OM always tries to get things I might buy for myself. Women often buy themselves jewelery - not too expensive in my case, I never go out and buy expensive jewelery for myself, but silver or costume jewelery, I do, so he's safe with that. Or figurines that mean something, books, CDs I like, etc.
I've seen little signs or "clip to the visor" inexpensive things that say "Never drive faster than your guardian angel can fly". I'll bet if you google those exact words, a host of sites with little trinkets with those words will pop up. If you gave him one of those, maybe he could say a work friend picked it up for him (because it's not at all expensive). He couldn't get away with that with a pendant, though.
Maybe some other people have better ideas - MM are tough - I think MW are easier - we buy more stuff for ourselves LOL!
You've got a lot of choices. If getting out of bed in the morning is a chore and you're not smiling on a regular basis, try another choice. ~Steven D. Woodhull

The best gifts are something that would blend in with his hobbies or interests.
For my APs brithday this year, I did a "message in a bottle" thing.
Some really wonderful and creative ideas :).
Music is pretty much out.
